Annual July 3rd Go-Go throw down featuring 2 of the best to ever do it - Rare Essence and EU featuring Sugar Bear.

Now in its 33rd year, the Giant National Capital Barbecue Battle is one of Washington, D.C.’s most beloved and flavorful annual events, celebrating the art of barbecue and the joy of summer. Held in the heart of the nation’s capital on the first weekend of summer each year, this two-day festival transforms Pennsylvania Avenue and surrounding streets into a vibrant showcase of smoky flavors, live music, and family-friendly fun.

Recognized as America’s “Official National BBQ Championship” on the floor of Congress, the Giant Barbecue Battle features mouthwatering competitions where top pitmasters from across the country compete for prestigious titles. Attendees can enjoy a variety of FREE food tastings, interactive cooking demonstrations, and unique vendors offering everything from craft beers to BBQ-themed merchandise. With live entertainment on multiple stages and activities for all ages, the Giant National Capital Barbecue Battle is a can’t-miss summer celebration of community, culture, and, of course, incredible BBQ.

We’ve got a fantastic vendor fair featuring 160 local vendors, a kid zone with thrilling inflatables, a vibrant community stage showcasing local talent, and a variety of delicious food. And that’s not all – this year’s musical theme is Go-Go music, a uniquely regional sound that’s deeply rooted in the African American community, symbolizing resilience and unity. Originally from Washington, D.C., Go-Go has become a beloved genre across the DMV area, including right here in Henrico County!

To kick things off, we’ve got the incredible Go-Go legends EU ft. Sugar Bear, plus the iconic Chuck Brown Band—Chuck Brown Band being none other than the Godfather of Go-Go. As the grand finale, we’re thrilled to welcome back Art of Noise, featuring DJ Lonnie B., plus an epic firework show to light up the night. It’s going to be a high-energy, unforgettable experience!

The entire Juneteenth Celebration is FREE and open to the public. Come out, enjoy the fun, and celebrate with us!

For any questions, don’t hesitate to give us a call at (804) 652-1421 or email Juneteenth@henrico.gov. See you there!
